NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::RequireBlockMap

DESCRIPTION

The expression forms of grep and map are awkward and hard to read. Use the block forms instead.

  @matches = grep   /pattern/,   @list;        #not ok
  @matches = grep { /pattern/ }  @list;        #ok

  @mapped = map   transform($_),   @list;      #not ok
  @mapped = map { transform($_) }  @list;      #ok
